Huanxi Farm: Pick up a husband for farming

Chapter 131
Zhou Jiakun jumped up and shouted: "I didn't! I never thought of killing Miss Rong, Miss Rong, you have to believe me!"

Zhou Jiakun grabbed Rongshui's sleeves and put his hands on the last straw, but a sneer of contempt appeared on the corner of Rongshui's mouth, this is not over yet, Zhou Jiakun, I will pay you for the crime of fabricating false evidence Let Douluo come out.

Then he said to Huang Zhi: "Master Huang, the second piece of evidence is that the iron plate presented by Zhou Jiakun yesterday was also bombed!"

Only then did Zhou Jiakun realize the feeling of being covered in cold sweat, his pitiful and hateful eyes lingered on Rongshui pleadingly.

However, Rong Shui didn't care about him, and said to himself: "The iron plate was verified by the minnv, and it was found to be owned by the Ansha Pavilion on the Jianghu. Zhou Jiakun panicked after failing to kidnap the minnen twice and being arrested by adults. He was afraid that the three fugitives would confess to him as the mastermind, so he came to the county government to rob the prison with the intention of killing people to silence them, so he found the Ansha Pavilion, and the iron plate was clearly in his hands, and it had nothing to do with Huchangzhai, let alone it was owned by his family. stolen!"

Huang Zhi asked suspiciously: "So the assassin that day was invited by Zhou Jiakun? What evidence is there?"

Rong Shui replied: "After the investigation of the women, I found that although the Ansha Pavilion is a Jianghu organization, it also has strong rules. Generally, after reaching a deal with the employer, an iron plate will be given as a certificate. After the task is completed, it will be returned. The transaction was recorded in the book, and a contract was issued, and last night, Minnv invited experts to steal the page and the contract document from Ansha Pavilion recording the transaction with Zhou Jiakun."

Rongshui took out another torn piece of paper, which was the evidence of the transaction that Zhao Yu and Er Qiangzi negotiated in the Ansha Pavilion overnight, and the condition was not only [-] silver, but also the pretext of stealing. It cannot be said bluntly that An Sha Pavilion betrayed his former employer.

Huang Zhi took the paper and read it carefully. It recorded where Zhou Jiakun's commission was received, how much money was collected, and how long ago the contract was completed.

The most important thing is that under the paper is covered with bright red ink pad, a word of Sha, which is exactly the same as the font on the iron plate.

Huang Zhi basically believed what Rong Shui said, but upholding the principle of caution, he handed the paper to the well-informed Master Li who had been active in the Jianghu and said, "See if it's true."

Master Li looked carefully, and compared the notes, ink marks, and words with the time points mentioned in it, he knew a thing or two, and he knew it to Huang: "Master County Magistrate, this contract is probably [-]% true."

Huang Zhi knew it in his heart. Seeing his lies being exposed one by one, Zhou Jiakun couldn't sit still, and he didn't know where to start his defense.

Rong Shui continued his efforts, wanting to drag Zhou Jiakun into a place of eternal doom, so he said: "There is this evidence, which is enough to prove that you, Zhou Jiakun, wanted to harm me several times and tried to assassinate the prisoner. Can you still believe the lie about being hijacked?"

"Don't say that Huchangzhai has no reason to harm me. If they want to swallow the minerals, why don't they talk to them directly, and join hands with you to kill me? Zhou Jiakun, your story is not even a little fanciful!" Rong Shui poked his nose and said.

Zhou Jiakun wanted to ask for forgiveness, Huang Zhi waved his hand, and announced directly: "Zhou Jiakun, hire kidnappers, buy murderers, forge evidence, and deserve punishment for several crimes! Ten years in prison! There must be no mistakes!"

Zhou Jiakun was terrified when he heard that his obese body was hit hard and he couldn't breathe freely.

However, the court was no better than their Zhou family, no one sympathized with him, only the yamen servants treated him roughly and dragged him down.

Seeing that Zhou Jiakun's trial is over, Huang Zhi has started to deal with Shanhu now, Rongshui also secretly thinks that the matter is not over yet, so he muster up his energy to deal with it.

Huang Zhi didn't look at Rongshui, and began to interrogate Shan Hu directly: "Shan Hu, you accepted money from others, kidnapped them with your life for others, ran wild in Huchangya for many years, and you haven't confessed all the crimes such as robbery and smashing to the officer."

Rong Shui was uneasy for a moment, but you promised my little sister that you must do your best to protect Huchangzhai and Shanhu.

Rong Shui quietly listened to Huang Zhi's speech, and couldn't help but interrupt before Shan Hu opened his mouth.

She said urgently: "Master Huang, although the bandits kidnapped me several times, they did not cause any harm to me after all, nor did they damage my Rong family's property, so I decided not to pursue his helpless act of hiring someone else. "

Now Huang Zhi felt dissatisfied, why did this Rong Shui protect a bandit without any origin so much today?

If you say that you did this just now, it can be understood that it is to find out the mastermind behind the scenes in order to return the truth to Shanhu. After punishing Zhou Jiakun, how can Shanhu be condoned by being hired to commit the kidnapping case?Now you actually say something you don't want to pursue?

I don't know what kind of medicine is sold in this girl's gourd!

Huang Zhi discussed with the master. According to the law of this dynasty, if Rong Yatou really does not pursue Shanhu's kidnapping, it is really difficult to punish this crime.

So Huang Zhi looked at Rongshui and confirmed, "Rongshui, have you thought about it? These bandits have done a lot of evil, even if they are sentenced to be executed after Qiuhou, it's not too much! You don't have to give in just because you can't bear it for a while or are afraid of retaliation. "

Rong Shui shook his head stubbornly, and said without negotiating: "Master Huang is worrying too much, and the women just don't want to pursue it because Huchangzhai is not the villain that the adults say."

There were some whispers in the crowd, but Rong Shui didn't care anymore, she looked directly at Huang Zhi with a fearless face.

Although Huang Zhi had already sentenced Zhou Jiakun in his heart and knew that that person was behind the scenes, his prejudice against Shan Hu and his gang did not disappear.

Not only because of jealousy since ancient times, but also because of a hidden reason, the more he can convict Shanhu of a felony, the more he can claim credit from the court and let the emperor see that he has eradicated an important criminal who committed crimes.

Of course, Huang Zhichu had just arrived and didn't understand what Huchangzhai did to the people at the bottom of the mountain, so he was eager for quick success and wanted to win the appreciation of the court by suppressing bandits.

Otherwise, if the mountain tiger was really the number one bandit that harmed the local people, the former Jiangcheng county magistrate would turn a blind eye and turn a blind eye, suppressing the bandits would be just a show, where as Huang Zhi did with all his strength.

Huang Zhi saw Rongshui's persistence, but frowned deeply, and said, "Even if you Rongshui doesn't pursue Shanhu's kidnapping of you, don't forget the other crimes he committed, which are also heinous. "

Rong Shui heard Huang Zhi's words with certainty, and of course understood his attitude, which was what she expected. How could Huang Zhi spare the Huchangzhai group easily after spending so much manpower and material resources?

It seemed that she still had a lot of effort to do, she took a deep breath, her gaze was tough, and she let her talk like a girl in court.

The tone insisted: "Master Huang's words are different! Didn't your lord just say that everything in the courtroom pays attention to evidence, don't you just talk nonsense? You said that the mountain tiger is heinous, and women dare to ask where the heinousness is?"

Huang Zhi was annoyed, he didn't expect that what he said would be used by Rong Shui to refute him.

He roared: "Presumptuous!"

Rong Shui knelt down in response, but his heart was full of dissatisfaction.

After Huang Zhi roared out this sound, he couldn't think of any rebuttal words.

There is no evidence, but before going to court, I thought that buying a murderer and kidnapping a civilian girl would be enough for Shanhu to punish him. After the trial, he would force a confession of the outrageous things he did on Huchangya in the past few years.

How could he know that two days ago his crimes had been cleared by Rong Shui, so there was no reason to force Shan Hu to confess, and if there was no forced confession, where was the evidence to prove that he was a bandit on Huchang Cliff and harmed the people?
For a while, Huang Zhi didn't know how to speak other than to establish his official authority. Rong Shui suppressed the feeling of arguing for Shanhu, but the people watching outside couldn't stand it anymore. At this time, there was no deliberate distortion by Zhou Jiakun As a matter of fact, some poor people did remember that in certain famine years, they more or less received food distributed in the name of Huchangzhai.

Then one or two voices sounded.

"That's right! Huchangzhai didn't do harm to nature at all, but even helped the government distribute food to us!"

"How many people froze to death in Liujiagou outside the city that winter? It wasn't because people from Huchangzhai braved the wind and snow to send clothes!"

"And that year when the river broke its embankment, only the people from Huchang Village were the first to fight the disaster!"

... There are more and more voices like this, which gradually arouse the conscience and memory of the people, and the water is lying on the ground, but the corner of the mouth quietly reveals a successful smile.

Yes, it was done by her. In the era of self-media in modern society, everyone knows how terrible the power of public opinion is, so before the trial, a few ordinary people were called to publicize Huchangzhai's years in the city. What I did for the people of Jiangcheng gave everyone a psychological effect, no!At the critical moment, she didn't believe that Huang Zhineng was not afraid of the people's words and insisted on being convicted and imprisoned.

Of course, these things are not fabricated out of thin air, and she can't fabricate them. Huchangzhai really did things for the people, but these things have been more or less forgotten by everyone for a long time. These days, she sent people to walk in the city. These news are just reminders It's just their memories, not an exaggeration.

Naturally, as Rong Shui expected, Huang Zhi was confused by the sudden indignation and support from the people, so he quietly asked the master, "Are these things true?"

The master wondered: "There are indeed such things, and Huchangzhai has indeed done some good things for the people of Jiangcheng."

Huang Zhi blamed: "Really! Then why didn't you remind me earlier?!"

The master scratched his head and said, "My lord is determined to suppress the bandits? It's useless for me to say this!"

Huang Zhi wailed again and again!It took several shots of the gavel in a row to stabilize the turbulent and aggrieved people. Now that things are going on, he can't be told to let the mountain tiger go, right?Otherwise, let him expend so many troops to go to Huchangya to suppress the bandits just to catch Zhou Jiakun?And let go of the leader of Huchangzhai! ?Didn't he become a big joke in the world?

Huang Zhiyi was cruel, and ordered: "Don't talk nonsense! Bandits and others, even if they have done good deeds, their merits and demerits cannot be offset! Wait for the judge to interrogate him for the crimes he committed, and then choose another day for trial! Retire!"

Rong Shui looked at Huang Zhi suddenly, he was about to leave the banquet as if avoiding it, Rong Shui really didn't believe that he would still ignore public opinion and go his own way.
